AUDREY’S TOP SIX ESSENTIALS!

Get super-cleansed and deeply moisturised with pampering products that’ll see your skin through summer with a smooth glow

GARDENER’S TREAT After a hard summer’s gardening, the Gardeners Bountiful Hamper (£15, HEATHCOTE-IVORY.COM) is ideal, with sunflower-seed-oil-rich hand cream, rhubarb hand salve and eucalyptus bath salts – plus gardening gloves if you’re a glutton for punishment! It would make a great gift.

GET SPORTY! Italian beauty brand Kiko is tops for value and their Beauty Games range is a winner! Take It All Beauty Kit (£19.90), Everlasting Kajal eye pencil (£5.90), volumeenhancing Beauty Energy Mascara in blue, violet or black and Finish Line Lipstick (£7.90 each, KIKOCOSMETICS.COM).

LIGHT AS A FEATHER Sun protection is a must to keep wrinkles at bay so try Olay Total Effects Featherweight Moisturiser SP15 (£14.99, pharmacies, supermarkets). The delicately scented, light formula absorbs instantly and promises to smooth, even, firm, moisturise and minimise pores – a big hit!

MOISTURE MIST Spritz Trilogy Hydrating Mist Toner (£17.50, pharmacies/ TRILOGYPRODUCTS.COM) on your face during the day, or use as toner after cleansing. The soothing blend of flower essences smells lovely, feels refreshing, works over make-up and won’t strip your skin of its natural oils.

SPRITZ AND SHINE If your hair is sun-stressed or over-processed, even conditioning isn’t enough. Lee Stafford CoCo LoCo (£4.99, Boots) does what it says on the bottle, turning straw to silk – and it smells divinely coconutty! Spray at arm’s length over mid-lengths on wet hair for glossy locks.

BEAUTY OFFER QVC and Benefit are offering an amazing Today’s Special Value on August 24 – the Best of Benefit Make-up Collection, including They’re Real! mascara, Gimme Brow, High Beam complexion enhancer and Benetint rose-tinted lip/cheek stain, in a rosy make-up bag ( QVCUK.COM, under £45).
